Iris Scanlon, Half-Moon Hollow’s only daytime vampire concierge, knows more about the undead than she’d like. Running all their daylight errands—from letting in the plumber to picking up some chilled O neg—gives her a look at the not-so-glamorous side of vampire life. Her rules are strict; relationships with vamps are strictly business, not friendship—and certainly not anything else. But then she finds her newest client, Cal, poisoned on his kitchen floor, and only Iris can help.
Cal - who would be devastatingly sexy, if Iris allowed herself to think that way - offers Iris a hefty fee for hiding him at her place until he figures out who wants him permanently dead. Even though he’s imperious, unfriendly and doesn't seem to understand the difference between "employee" and "servant," Iris agrees, and finds herself breaking more and more of her own rules to help him - particularly those concerning nudity.
Turns out what her quiet little life needed was some intrigue & romance—in the form of her very own stray vampire.
Review:
Personally, I think this one should have been the first book in the series, as its timeline seems to come before Driving Mr. Dead, but you could read either book as a stand-alone and be fine!
Plenty of action and comedy.
I don't think any of the characters will ever compare to Jane, but I am still in love with Half Moon Hollow and all the crazy people it contains.
I like that this one was different from the others, as some people actually stay human and do not make the transformation into Vampire. It was a simply decision that changes the whole storyline for me. :)
I really hope this series continues, I don't know that I will find anything quite as funny too read after this!
